A single, 'naked' black hole confounds theories of the young cosmos

news.ycombinator.com Charlie Wood 2025-10-06 11:27:12

A black hole unlike any seen before has been spotted in the early universe. It’s huge and appears to be essentially on its own, with few stars circling it. The object, which may represent a whole new class of enormous “naked” black holes, upends the textbook understanding of the young universe. “This is completely off the scale,” said Roberto Maiolino, an astrophysicist at the University of Cambridge who helped reveal the nature of the object in a preprint posted on August 29. “It’s terribly ex

From 'Orwell 2+2=5’ to 'Frankenstein’: TIFF's Films on Power, Creation, and Survival Are a Warning

Albania has appointed the world's first-ever AI government official in hopes of rooting out some of the Balkan state's long-running corruption.

With this years switch from Titanium to Aluminum, the iPhone 17 Pro simply uses the same material as the standard iPhone 17 model.

Visual programming is stuck on the form

Underlying great creations that you love—be it music, art, or technology—its form (what it looks like) is driven by an underpinning internal logic (how it works). I noticed this pattern while watching a talk on cellular automaton and realized it's "form follows function" paraphrased from a slightly different angle. Inventing a form is a hard task, so you must approach it obliquely—by first illuminating the underlying function. This made me realize something crucial about visual programming: it’
